Walkers in Randolph Co., Mo

Some of these families I can identify, but I am wondering if there are other connections to Jesse Walker that I'm not aware of. Does anyone have additional information. I haven't checked the history of Randolph Co., but it now adjoins Howard Co. to the south and Macon Co. to the north.

Randolph Co., Missouri Marriages

Washington Walter and Mary Shim Nov 26, 1833
NOTE: (Walker) and (Shearon)
Canady Owenby and Lucinda Walker – July 19, 1834.
Peter Walker and Margaret Montgomery – May 15, 1834
West Walker and Rebecca Vestal – July 25, 1836
William K(?) Walker and Malinda Birch – June 7, 1836
Thomas H. Walker and Charlotte Dossey - January 22, 1849
Franklin Walker and Elizabeth Ferrell - 9 Mar 1854
Ann H Walker and Mary A Alverson - 6 Sep 1855
Lucy Ann Walker and William Henry Harrison Overly - 20 Jul 1858
Washington Walker and Susanah Gregory - 28 Nov 1858


Ancestry.com has recorded Washington Walter and Mary Shim, but in looking at the copy, I am sure this is Washington WALKER and Mary Shirn or Shearin. The death certificate of a William J. Walker in 1922 (Randolph Co) lists his parents as Washington Walker and Mary Shearon.

Washington and Mary are listed in the 1850 census of Macon Co. as follows:

Washington Walker - 37 - Farmer - 150 - TN
Mary - 35 - VA
Aaron - 15 - Farmer - Mo
Minerva J - 13 - Mo
John - 12 - Mo
Lucy Ann - 10 - Mo
William -8 - Mo
Mary 6 - Mo
Bartly 5 – Mo

Missouri Marriage Records, 1859
Sugar Creek Township
Randolph County, Mo
On the 18th day of November 1858 Washington Walker and Susanah Gregory was lawfully married by the undersigned justice of a peace for and in said county. John W. Jones, JP

I have no “proof” but believe this is the same family shown below in the 1860 Census, Liberty Twp.,Macon Co., Mo

John W., Walker, 46, Tenn
Susan, 43, Ky
William J. S., 18, Mo
Mary, 15, Mo
Bartley H., 13, Mo
Elizabeth Grigra, 14, Ky
Garden hire Walker, 5, Mo
Jane Gregra, 10, Ky

Does anyone know about these families?

Ruth
